BEIJING, March 3 -- AC Milan are working to extend David Beckham's loan from Los Angeles Galaxy until the end of June with an eye to signing him permanently next year, chief executive Adriano Galliani said Monday.

"Negotiations are getting more intense. I hope to manage to arrange for him to stay here at least until June 30 on loan," Galliani told the club's in-house TV channel.
"Then he could return to Los Angeles and come back in January. It's a complicated path, as we have always known, but I'm trying."
The clubs are close to an agreement for the loan extension which should be finalised by the end of the week, the Los Angeles Times reported on its website (www.latimes.com).
Beckham is due to return to Galaxy on March 9 if a deal is not reached. The clubs had been in talks over a permanent transfer but were unable to agree on a fee.
